could work on hotseat?

[Danielet89]

my email is [email protected] i have got it on smartphone so you can reach me in everytime, my question is could you modify your broswer program to modify from ai to human or from human to ai ? so i could convert a file from hotseat to sigle player and viceversa. Thank you

Hi!

In order to implement something like this, the first step is to test to see whether it would work or not. Even if it's possible to change the save file, there's no guarantee that it will work in the game so it needs to be tested first.

Please create a hotseat game with at least two human players and attach it to this issue (you should just be able to drag and drop the file into the comment box) and I'll see if I can modify it.

Also, in case it helps, someone on the CivFanatics forums mentioned another option for achieving this:

I have not tried this, but I think you can load the game up as multiplayer hotseat with you playing both the Incas and Russians. When it is your turn to play the Russians, you resign. At that point, the game will proceed as normal single player.

I just need a hotseat game from you so I can test whether it will work to change from a human player to AI. It doesn't matter how many players it has. Please create one and attach it to this issue.

The save editor I posted on the forum is the same as the one here. It's just a web app that you can access at this link: https://bmaupin.github.io/civ5save-editor

If you can create a hotseat file with a password and attach it to this issue I can test it.

Sure:

1. First you'll need to find where your save games are stored. The instructions here should help if you're having trouble finding them: 2K Support: Where can I locate my saved games?
2. Now go to the save editor: https://bmaupin.github.io/civ5save-editor/
3. Click Open save file and browse to the save file you'd like to edit
4. After modifying the save file, click Download
5. If you'd like, rename the new save file so you can easily recognize it in the game
6. Now copy the downloaded save file to the same folder where your save games are stored (from step #⁠1)
7. Finally start the game and load the new save file

Hope that helps!

I think I may have figured out while your file isn't being sent. Apparently GitHub only supports certain file formats, including zip files. Can you please zip the save file and try again? Thanks!

[Danielet89]

i sent you the zipped file , when you will have time give me some news 1000 thanks again

[bmaupin]

Got it, thanks I'll take a look.

In the meantime, could you please try this?:

Is there a way to make the AI take control a player's game in a Hot Seat multiplayer match?

I found the solution to this by saving the game, quitting to the main menu, and then loading the game up again. You're taken to the main starter screen page where you can assign a player to be controlled by an AI.

Thank you :) remain the problem of the passwords

[Danielet89]

But i dont understand quit does mean surrender or simply quit ?

[bmaupin]

But i dont understand quit does mean surrender or simply quit ?

I don't know. Try both and see which one works :)

[Danielet89]

Nothing of 2 sure simply return to the main menu, change nothing

[bmaupin]

Nothing of 2 sure simply return to the main menu, change nothing

If I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying it didn't work?

Since the game is already exited in this case, can you try to load it and see if it lets you assign any of the human players to an AI?

[Danielet89]

No it cant let me , in few words i return where i was when i reload the savegame modified before had exit to the main menu

Thanks!

Hi, it looks like you're replying to the issue through email. Unfortunately I'm not seeing any of your attachments. I think you'll have to go directly to the issue (#11) in a web browser and attach the zip file using the instructions from my previous comment. Thanks!

[Danielet89]

Here you are the file tell me if you can open it https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UvNHGgCuZfxUxB2G5GZuCtSKGGAsN7a-/view?usp=drivesdk
